I'm getting fed up now. Still... gotta give it a bit longer yet.
Aw *hugs*
That's the 6 million dollar question! When will I agree to it?!
I don't know. I don't want it really, but the mood I'm in tonight I'd say yeah, do it now!
Jump up and down a bit, see if that helps
They can offer you an induction, doesn't mean you have to have it!
yeah they just watch you closer don't they?
Yeah i know, they don't like to make that common knowledge though do they. Anyway all the best, get scrubbing the kitcken floor
Yeah, they have you in a couple of times a week on a monitor. They don't make it common knowledge no, but I've read all the clinical guidelines. And I'm not at all sure I'm going to take it until 42 weeks at least.
Don't suppose you have one of them lying around, do you Miffy? :razz:
Yeah, well i guess it depend how you feel. I hope you get the natural birth you want though.
theres gonna be another then?
Never mind giving birth while you sleep, if I leave it in there long enough it'll be sleeping through the night already!
Yes, I suppose it will depend how I feel. But I really don't like the idea of pitocin, and once they rupture your membranes the clocks ticking. So I dunno.
And it doesnt help when there seems to be a lot of pregnant people around making me broody, my friend is due tomorrow, wonder who'll go first, her or Miffy :hyper:
I'm probably wrong though, having never given birth :P
Finally somebody else that realises they dont have to fit into the doctors timetable about these things.
My waters went 24 hours before they bothered to get me on the syntocinon drip which meant I had to have a lovely drip of antibiotics in my other hand to pull at when I was having contractions :grump:
What I meant was does it harm you in any way because the labour isn't brought on naturally? Am I talking rubbish, or does that make sense?!
